The original territory of the family was at Fearann ua n-Dunlaing (O'Dowling's Country). This area covered along Western bank of the River Barrow. The O'Dowling's were one of the Seven Septs of Leix, significant families in the County once called Queen's County.

Welcome!

This site is generally a genealogical site and deals with the Dowling family name, history and origins, research into the name Dowling (One-Name-Study) and other name related information.

If you are a Dowling, Doolin, Doolan, Dooling or other variation this could be of interest to you...

The site has very recently been revitalised with the new TNG software and I am still on the learning curve. Bit by bit more elements will be used or hidden to make more sense. So, please bookmark and look-in again.
